Wow. Where do you people get this stuff from?

We REALLY need more science education.

In a middle school science class we saw a film. We learned that the sun is a giant volcano. That we know. Rocks escaped the sun but stayed within it's orbit, which are the planets.

As the rocks cool there is a great deal of steam pushed into the surrounding area. This created the atmosphere. (The earth just happened to be the right distance from the sun). This cooling also created distortions in the rock which later became the mountains and valleys. The condensation rained down and filled the low areas with the water and minerals which became the oceans. Leave standing water anywhere long enough and you'll get moss, bugs and other life forms.

With nothing to eat them for millions or billions of years they get bigger and become fish, etc. The ocean life ran out of things to eat and had to leave the oceans to find food, and then evolved into reptiles and other things. Then they had to leave the ground and find food in the trees, hence birds. It was all about adapting to find food back then. That's how life got started.

As for humans, there is a theory that has been proposed about an aquatic origin, which differs from the popular theories we have heard in the past. Check out the link below.

If you want to include a "Divine creation" theory, you can point to the fact that most living things seem to be similar with two eyes, two ears, one nose, one mouth, etc., or to the fact that we have souls and thoughts. (There are many conflicting theories about that too). Or not. Either way, that's just one theory and there are many others but it sounds pretty logical to me.

The Big Bang wasn't an explosion but an expansion of space and time. It did not create planets, planets form by accretion in a disc of dust. Our solar system came into being about 4.7 billion years ago after a supernova of the previous sun created the disc of dust - 9 billion years after the big bang. Life came into being on the planet about 3.5billion years ago and once life was here, it started to evolve.

There are many good science sites that will explain all this to you if you are interested in learning. A good place to start would be the FAQ at the Talk Origins Archive at http://www.talkorigins.org

whether or not there was a big bang or no big bang the planets and all life are formed by interfering cosmic sting harmonies which form points of energy called electrons and quarks. The quark are then bound together in determined goblets by gluon's created by the color force and encircled by electrons by the weak force to form an atom. The atom is 99.9% empty space and virtually invisible and forms all solid matter from non solid particle / wave entities. Now the question is, is that a random or designed process?

Nobody can answer your question in a few paragraphs. Understanding how pure energy can become matter requires understanding Einstein's special theory of relativity, E = mc^2. ...and that's just for starters. The only way to truly understand the pivotal theories of modern science (origin of life, evolution, big bang, etc.) is to educate yourself about each theory until they actually do make sense. Cosmology, in particular, requires an enormous amount of serious mathematics. At this point, it's most important to appreciate that your lack of understanding stems from the limitations of your own education, not from a flaw or fault within any theory.

The Big Bang is not the explanation for the "creation" of life on earth. Abiogenesis is....

The Big Bang is responsible for the formation of the universe - not the "creation" of planets. Planets are "created" from gravitational forces, physics and chemistry.

You might want to ask in the science section.

The Big Bang turned energy into matter, mostly Helium and Hydrogen. We know this because the oldest stars (born around the time of the Big Bang) contain mostly Helium and Hydrogen, while newer stars contain much more elements. In the stars it's hot enough for nuclear fussion to begin, so atoms smash into each other due to the extreme heat, and create newer elements. When one star dies, and combines with space dust a new star is born with all the elements of the old star, and it becomes hotter. In the hotter star even newer elements are created. Eventually, our star was created and it had the elements for life. The Big Bang didn't create the planets. Planets are created as a new star is born. They're the left over remnents of a star as it is created. Gravity is what pulls those remnents together to form into planets.

The successive complexity after the Big Bang allowed life to exist (formation of galaxies due to gravity, creation of heavier elements to create terrestrial worlds; evolution of simple lifeforms in the right conditions).

It's an incredibly complex process. The Big Bang is only one part of that. Amazing, isn't it?

We don't have the scientific needs to know that the Big Bang created the universe. It's only a theory.

But the point is, God didn't create the universe.

considering that an explosion destroys life rather than creating life, I'd say it's nothing short of a miracle for the big bang to create life.

They don't.

The big-bang only seeded the universe with hydrogen and energy.
